The Wet Seal, Inc. licenses 3 Tier Logic's Platform[3] technology to help drive e-commerce transactions and increase quantity and duration of website visits

3 Tier Logic's Platform3 Technology Will Motivate and Incentivize Consumers to Create and Share Wet Seal Content on Mobile and Desktop Applications

VANCOUVER, Feb. 20, 2015 /CNW/ - 3TL Technologies Corp.  (TSXV: TTM) announced today that its wholly owned subsidiary, 3 Tier Logic, has entered into a software services and licensing agreement with The Wet Seal, Inc. to assist the fast fashion retailer in its efforts to accelerate e-commerce transactions.

In the agreement, Wet Seal will utilize 3 Tier Logic's Platform³ consumer-to-consumer content marketing and data mining platform.  The platform will seamlessly integrate with Wet Seal's existing digital marketing platforms including its website. The core objective will be to increase the quantity and duration of website visits and the conversion of those visits to generate more e-commerce transactions. In addition, Platform³'s robust data mining module will aggregate data to enhance target consumer messaging.

As part of the program, 3 Tier Logic will develop technologies that enable consumers to create online Style Boards and Outfits of their favorite Wet Seal merchandise and share the content with their friends on their personal social media channels via mobile and desktop platforms. Consumers and their social channel friends will be able to instantly purchase items contained in the Outfits, as well as like, share, and 'love' their favorite Style Boards and Outfits. As consumers share their Style Boards and Outfits, they will receive points that can be redeemed for rewards such as Wet Seal gift cards, online discount codes, and other audience-relevant rewards. 3 Tier Logic will integrate its proprietary Platform³ technology that will allow Wet Seal to gather in-depth data about the content sharing and purchase behaviors of individual consumers who opt-in to the program. This process will also enable Wet Seal to communicate directly with consumers on a one-to-one basis and further motivate and incentivize them to purchase and share content more frequently.

"E-commerce will play an increasingly important role in the future of Wet Seal," said Jon Kubo, Executive Vice President, and Chief Digital Officer at The Wet Seal.  "This user experience we are creating with 3 Tier Logic combines the biggest trends which are driving ecommerce today; visual user generated content, brand created social communities rewards for engagement, and the use of big data for personalization."  

"Mobile engagement and online commerce have become critical components to growth for retailers and Platform³ is positioned to play a strategic role in this effort," said 3 Tier Logic CEO Robert Craig.  "Since more than sixty-percent of Wet Seal's E-commerce traffic is from mobile devices, we are confident Platform³ will make a significant contribution to the online engagement and e-commerce goals of Wet Seal."

The Wet Seal / Platform³ program is scheduled for activation in the spring of 2015.
